"This car has been to every state west of the rockies in the 8 years I've owned it and it's still going strong at 150,000+ miles.
Reliability: Aside from the standard tire changes, brake jobs , and oil & fluid changes, the only maintenance that this car has ever needed has been new spark plugs and a cap & rotor.
Power: On the subject of power it has enough to get you out of trouble when needed but not enough to get you into it (well, most of the time - I have had a ticket or two).
Comfort: My only complaint is that after the ten total years of use one side of the padding on the drivers seat has begun to break down slightly."

"I've had a 5 speed SE-R with basic bolt on mods for 7 years, and it has beeen awsomely reliable. Have only had to replace a CV axle, and a starter on it, and it's never let me down. It's as quick and nimble as any road car should be. Its the perfect around town, or road trip car for one or two people. I'd take it over many newer cars any day!"

"1998 se-r, 2.0L.I had it for 10 years it has 114k miles on it. Feels sporty and has some power. The KB book value for this car with that mileage is about $3.400 i would recommend to my friend buy it with no hesitation. The only thing I dont like is the body, looks a little bit ugly, but performance and quality is great. A person above stated that it was hard for him to find parts for this car on junk yards, I think it is encouraging that there are few of these cars on junk yards. To me it means reliability. Japanese cars are great, i will stay with Japan as long as possible!!"
